JABAR - West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil inspected the Cileunyi-Sumedang-Dawuan (Cisumdawu) Toll Road project in Sumedang Regency today. According to Kang Emil, as Ridwan Kamil is known, this toll road is expected to operate at the end of January 2022 for section 1, namely the Cileunyi-Rancakalong section.
Kang Emil reviewed the project together with his wife, Atalia Praratya using a motorcycle. The toll road that connects Bandung-Kertajati to Dawuan is experiencing rapid progress. The work continues to be accelerated.
"The overall work so far is above 90 percent. Even at the end of January, some of them will be officially opened to the public, namely section 1," said Kang Emil when met at the Cisumdawu Toll Road, Antara, Monday, January 10.
He further said that the entire Cisumdawu toll road segment is targeted to be operational in June 2022. This is due to a number of things, including several points that experienced landslides, so that the work was disrupted.
"There is a slight disaster in the form of avalanches that must be re-examined. The design is currently being handled," he said.
In addition, there are still some land acquisitions that must be completed. There are several points that are expansion, so there needs to be additional land that must be acquired.
"From the contractor's report, this can be completed and in June 2022 it can be operated. We hope that the important thing is security is guaranteed, and this year it can penetrate to Kertajati," he said.
According to him, the connection of the toll road from Bandung to Kertajati, Majalengka Regency, is expected to boost the economy in the region. Moreover, the distance from Bandung to Kertajati is only about 40 minutes.
"If this toll road has passed through Kertajati, there should be no reason for Kertajati to be deserted because the distance from Bandung to there is only 40 minutes," said Kang Emil.
With the Cisumdawu Toll Road, West Java Province will be more optimistic about economic recovery in 2022. This is considering that there are other infrastructures that will be inaugurated this year, such as the Jakarta-Bandung high-speed train.
"This is the progress of progress. We thank Mr. Jokowi and Mr. Minister for encouraging this acceleration, so that the economy of the people of West Java will improve," he said.
